    How can I set the Social Media links to open in a new tab, I don’t want people to be directed away from the website but just open a new tab with my Facebook page etc.

    Thanks

  • Hi,

    The footer icons open in a new tab. Which version are you talking about? ??

    Regards,

    Links that are on ‘our member’ Even at ‘Our focus’, it’d be good to have option to make it open in new window.

    But on our Our Member section IS the must! And even better if we can add website link to our member picture.

    Hi,

    I’ve reported this to our developers and we will make these improvements in upcoming versions. ??

    Thank you! It’d even better if you can choose new window or not.

    Hi,

    No problem. Please consider reviewing the theme if you like it. ??

    Hi,

    Has there been any movement on this? Id really like to incorporate it. I would edit it myself but cannot find the location of the social icon code. Any ideas?

    Best Wishes,
    Elliot

    Are you talking about Our Team social icons or the footer? ??

    Hello DAB-Online –
    It is quite easy and even a cinch.
    Can i have your site url please then i will let you know what actually you should do to achieve your task.
    Waiting for your return?

    Hi,

    Thanks for your reply. I am talking about the social media icons/links that are displayed on ‘Team’ panel. Not the social icon links in the footer.

    Site URL: https://www.intonomansland.org

    Thanks for your help,
    Elliot

    Hello foxep,
    Thanks for your site url.

    Please find the team member sections among your theme files and use target=”_blank” inside the a tag in the social-icons class.

    If you are not able to do it then we can share the screen if possible and i will do it on behalf of you.
    Waiting for your return??

    Vipin, the issue with that is that you’re changing codes around. Which means when there is an update, we’ll have to redo it and my security plugins will go crazy saying the file has been changed and try to fix it automatically.

    We (at least I) would like to get this updated by theme authors rather than fixing it by toughing to codes.

    Thanks for your effort to help though. ??

    To Authors: We would like to see option to make it open in new window for each section if possible…. but we’re talking about Team section more than anything else because that’s the section where we often link team’s external site and when they click, they leave the site… ??

    Hi Vlpin,

    Thanks so much for this!!! – worked perfectly – took me ages to figure out where it was.

    For anyone that is wondering, the code where you can insert the blank target is in functions.php inside the theme files.

    Thanks again Vlpin,
    Elliot
